    Admin not logging in when folder name changed

    I have just purchased Flynax and am doing a fresh install of 4.5.2
    Following the instructions I changed the admin folder name and took the appropriate steps during the install.
    When I go to the admin page and put my username and password, the page doesn't respond.
    I have done this several times and also tried just leaving the admin folder as is.
    If the admin folder name is not changed, then all works fine.
    Regardless of what I do via the install steps or later through FTP, changing the admin folder name doesn't process the log in.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Hello Chris,

    Exist 2 other places where you should change name for the new admin folder.
    ftp://includes>>config.inc.php

    find line: define( 'ADMIN', 'admin' ); and change in 2nd part to new admin folder.
    then open file: ftp://new_admin_folder>>.htaccess
    find line: RewriteBase /admin/ and also change to the new admin folder.

    save and try to login again.

    Hi,
    I have just done another fresh install and all those things are fine.
    The admin page still just sits and says loading...
    I also noted on the front user interface that dropdowns do not work in the search area after selecting country.
    The State/Region/Province just sits saying loading... as well.
    Are these things related?
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hello Chris,

    I thought your website have javascript/xajax problems.
    I suggest you create a new ticket in the Technical Department or send me FTP access to PM.
    Thank you, Curtis.
